The 2018 anime primarily covers the light novels by Kagyu. Looking at only Kagyu’s light novels, which have 13 volumes and 3 volumes of side stories, there is enough content to refer to. Producers can make more than two seasons from it. The first season covered volumes 1 and 2 and partially volume 4.

Even after that, there is a manga with more than 18 volumes including the spinoffs. So from the context of the content, it looks all good.

The movie Goblin Slayer: Goblin’s Crown premiered on February 2020, which covered the fifth volume. The movie can also be taken as an indication that the anime is still under consideration for another season. In an interview, one of the members of the production team did say that there will be a second season and it will premiere in 2022. However, there is no official release date yet.

What Can We Expect in The New Season?

The finale revealed a part of Goblin Slayer Face, with two scars near his chin, as he defeated Goblin Lord and saved his hometown. In the end, it is revealed that he is just a pawn to something big. But the Gods seem to take an interest in him as he refuses his fate to be controlled by them.

The second season would definitely include more goblin slaying. With the Harvest Festival preparations going on, everybody seems to be carefree except Goblin Slayer, who senses a new threat approaching. The second season could feature Dark Elf as the main antagonist who wreaks havoc at the festival. It could cover more of volume 4 and volume 3.

In case the second season has more episodes, we could see it cover 6 and 7 too. Hopefully, it happens so, because volumes 6 and 7 go deeper into the characters and it would give a nice progression to the anime series.
